About 20 students from Middletown High School and Appoquinimink High School competed at the annual Get S.E.T. Olympics in Wilmington on March 14.

The event, hosted by Junior Achievement of Delaware, allows students in the Foundations Program, each of whom are between the ages of 16 and 21 with moderate to severe learning challenges, to compete in contests that mirror the career skills they've gained at school and in the workplace.

Students from throughout New Castle County participated in the Get S.E.T. (Special Employment Training) competitions.

Six students from the Appoquinimink School District brought home 11 medals this year.

From Middletown High School, Shugniqua "Shug" Nance earned a trio of gold medals by taking first place in the rolling silverware, bussing tables and culinary measurement events. Courtney Fields picked up a gold medal in recycling and a bronze for stocking shelves. Shawn Freeman earned a silver medal in recycling, while Erick Crumpton won a bronze medal in the towel folding competition.

From Appoquinimink High School, Rauchann Pressley earned a gold medal in sorting/hanging clothes and a silver medal in bussing tables, while Jasmine Brown won silver medals in stuffing envelopes and coin recognition.
